A Northwoods Dingwop

Hello devoted readers. "Tomten I" is officially in the books. A great time was had by everyone that showed up. Shame on you for those that didn't show up for whatever reason. The day started off with some rain but it stopped around 4-5 and Hosts Wayne & Dell declared, let the rock begin! Great music all night long. The food was amazing too, great work Misgen fam! The Northernmost Pilot set went alright, considering it was our big debut, I think we gained a few fans last night though. I put our songs on Youtube and posted some of Waynes as well, sorry I couldn't get vids for every band. Maybe next year. Wayne was excellent as expected. Okay, here are a few pics, thanks to the Misgen family for a great Tomten, I hope we have another next year.


**** search chizzo4545 for the youtube vids******

Chi Town, K.C., Motown to Alabama, LA!

Hola! Long time no blog. Got back from the trip to Chi Town on Friday. Good times, the weather cooperated for us, just rained a little Thursday night. Saw a lot of stuff and did a lot of walking. Pretty much took every sort of transportation you could take too. Rode the L a decent amount, surprisingly not scary. Here's some pics, Enjoy! Next weekend Tomten pics?


We tried to get a picture of the boys together, but it was impossible.

Max now knows how to clap his hands. His other new favorite thing to do it climb the stairs.

The wound from Sam's dress.

Chicago Pics:
One of the first shots I took, one of my faves too.
The newlyweds.
Here's the bridge that was right next to our hotel. We crossed it about 4 times a day.
Sam loves the black & white.
Sadly or luckily, this is as close as we got to Oprah, can you spot her?
The Hotel.
House of Blues next door.
The clear floor of the Sears Tower, or whatever you call it now. Not that scary after you take the initial first step.

The L.
Not quite the gitchigoomie, but I liked Lake Michigan.
Good ol' Chicago Style dog. Very tasty!
Shedd Aquarium
A Harry Potter nerd excited for the exhibit, o wait that's Sam.
